Jon Hamm Crashes Bad Bunny's SNL Monologue in Viral Surprise!

Bad Bunny took on hosting duties for SNL's season 51 premiere - and the rapper's opening monologue was humorously crashed by Jon Hamm

BAD BUNNY TAKES OVER SNL: RAPPER BRINGS THE FIRE IN OPENING MONOLOGUE AND LATE-NIGHT SKITS!

It's official: Bad Bunny is the king of comedy, and he proved it on Saturday Night Live (SNL) last weekend. The 31-year-old Puerto Rican rapper made his debut as host of the show's season 51 premiere, and let's just say he brought the heat.

In his opening monologue, Bad Bunny poked fun at himself and his recent residency in Puerto Rico, which ran for a whopping 31 shows. He joked about being "still kind of tired" due to the long performances, but quickly showed off his impressive dance moves (or lack thereof). The star even referenced his upcoming headlining gig at the Super Bowl LX Halftime Show early next year, and we can't wait to see what he has in store for us!

'Some celebrities came to my show. Few of them were on drugs,' Bad Bunny told the live audience. 'And I don't want to say who, but this was Jon Hamm'

But the real magic happened when Jon Hamm crashed Bad Bunny's monologue. Yes, you read that right – Jon Hamm! The Mad Men alum was caught on camera dancing like a fool at one of Bad Bunny's concerts back in August, and the rapper couldn't resist throwing some shade. "Some celebrities came to my show," he said with a smirk. "Few of them were on drugs... and I don't want to say who, but this was Jon Hamm."

The crowd erupted into laughter as the camera cut to Hamm in the live audience, sporting the same outfit from his infamous dance video. He flashed a big smile and mimicked the dance moves, and we're pretty sure he's still obsessed with Bad Bunny.

But that was just the beginning of an epic night on SNL. Bad Bunny appeared in several hilarious skits throughout the show, showcasing his impressive comedic skills. In one sketch, he played a character named Thomas who joins his friends for brunch to catch up on movies. However, things take a turn when they start discussing K-Pop Demon Hunters – and let's just say Bad Bunny is a die-hard fan.

The reel was then played, causing the crowd to erupt into laughter. 'Actually, that wasn't Jon Hamm, that was Juan Jamon,' the star joked

The rapper even got a surprise cameo from the fictional K-Pop group in question, with Ejae, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami belting out lyrics to their hit track "Golden." The audience went wild as the Demon Jinu (played by Bowen Yang) appeared on screen, and Bad Bunny's friends apologized for not taking the movie seriously earlier.

In another sketch, Bad Bunny played a contestant on Jeopardy! with Andrew Dismukes as the host. However, things got awkward when he kept answering questions incorrectly – until he finally won $1 million by accident (yes, you read that right).

The night ended on a high note with Benicio del Toro making a surprise cameo to explain the complexities of Spanish grammar. The actor even suggested taking a nap in the middle of the day, and Bad Bunny's assistant (played by Marcello Hernandez) couldn't agree more.

As the show came to a close, it was clear that Bad Bunny is not only a talented rapper but also a comedic genius. We can't wait to see what he has planned next – and we're already counting down the days until his Super Bowl LX Halftime Show performance!

The two other contestants had already won money, while Bad Bunny's character had negative $18K

It became apparent that he didn't understand how to play the game and kept losing money due to not working the answers he gave as a question

The game show host - played by Andrew Dismukes - continued to explain how to answer a question, but Bad Bunny kept doing the opposite, despite having correct answers

The host started to grow impatient and said, 'Okay, Duke, I'm just going to throw you a bone and give you

Bad Bunny decided to wager $1 million. He then needed to answer in the form of a question: 'Formed in 1964 London, this band was formerly known as

Frustrated, Bad Bunny said, 'I'm sorry, I just don't understand this game. Who is the what, what is the who?'

The answer was The Who - and since he formed it into a question by accident, he won the $1 million, leaving the host and contestants in shock
